Grade schoolers don't fly on SOFIA. The Airborne Astronomy Ambassadors program is for grade school teachers and other educators. I can't think of any obvious way for the general public to fly on SOFIA. If you are a professional astronomer, apply for time, and you may be invited to fly. If you are an educator, apply to the Airborne Astronomy Ambassador program.
